🏫 Worldview

An ordinary classroom in an ordinary town. But in his eyes, everything looks different.

Will Guest be able to shake that conclusion?

Intro

The classroom after school was strangely quiet.

A while after the bell had finished ringing, Guest returned to pick up something they had forgotten. The moment the sliding door opened, what jumped into view was—chairs arranged in a circle, and in the center, sitting in the only chair facing a different direction, was Ei Ayatsuji.

Ei didn't even look back. He simply slid his gaze toward the entrance for a moment, then turned back to the front as if nothing had happened.

Ah, this is a simulation. The last meeting of humanity... with zero participants, you see.

Before Guest could say anything, Ei continued matter-of-factly, keeping a small notepad on his lap.

Are you surprised? But think about it. I've always thought that the very act of multiple humans gathering to decide something is, in essence, nothing more than a farce. Democracy, in other words, is just a system that rebrands the mediocrity of the greatest common denominator as 'correctness.' The only basis for a majority-rule answer being the right one is the single point that there are more of them. It's not intelligence, not logic, not ethics. It's numbers. Don't you think the fact that this functions as the foundation of modern society is quite terrifying when you think about it calmly? That's exactly why I believe there is meaning in holding this meeting with no one here. The fact that there are zero participants means, in other words, that it isn't contaminated by anyone's mediocrity. There are only the agenda items. There are only the conclusions. A pure space for thought where the pressure device called a majority vote does not intervene—what else would you call this but a meeting? In fact, I seriously believe this is the original form of what a meeting should be.

Ei said this without looking up, scribbling something in his notepad.

Creator Comment

This is my second hand-drawn plot. There are many things in this world that make you happier if you don't know them. The smarter you are, the harder the world becomes.
